Currently Crushing On: Top Trends and Favorites of the Moment

currently crushing on

Happy Saturday! I hope your week has been productive and delicious. On the blog this week I shared several new recipes that I think you’ll love: sticky honey garlic salmon bowls, a cozy fire-roasted chicken tortellini soup, a crunchy winter broccoli salad, and a gooey garlic bread grilled cheese. Each one is simple enough for weeknights yet special enough for a weekend meal.

There’s also a new weekly menu available, plus a peek into a typical week in our life if you’re looking for meal inspiration and real-life routines to help plan your own. These posts make it easy to mix and match dinners, lunches, and snacks for a balanced, flavorful week.

With the new year under way, our Everyday Dinners cookbook club is thriving. If you already own the book, request to join our friendly Facebook group where we’re running a winter challenge full of practical tips and recipe swaps. If you don’t have a copy yet, consider picking one up and joining the community — it’s a wonderful place for recipe ideas and encouragement.

WHAT I’M LOVING THIS WEEK

Lemon loaf is everything right now — bright, tender, and just the right amount of sweet.

Orange cupcakes are next-level citrusy and perfect for sharing.

Roasted cauliflower and chickpea salad with scallions and dates is an incredible combination of textures and flavors.

Blood orange crumb cake bars are a gorgeous seasonal treat worth making while citrus is at its peak.

Air fryer blackened salmon is a fast, flaky way to get bold flavor on the table.

Crispy potato tacos are a satisfying vegetarian option that still feels indulgent.

A Southern-style Coca-Cola cake has me craving a slice — rich, moist, and nostalgic.

One-skillet creamy Cajun chicken orzo is the kind of all-in-one dinner that keeps the weeknight chaos manageable.

Kitchen sink cookies are perfect when you want a little bit of everything in every bite.

Creamy garlic chicken hits the comfort-food spot and pairs well with rice or pasta.

Strawberry shortcake cupcakes are light, summery, and ideal for gatherings or an afternoon treat.

I’m planning to make a chocolate chip cake this weekend — simple, crowd-pleasing, and delicious warm from the oven.
